"Ready for me?"
Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow, watching Qian Renxue's graceful figure disappear, and immediately followed.
He reached out to take Qian Renxue's soft hand in his.
The moment he touched her,
Qian Renxue blushed and smiled, pulling away.
"Don't touch me until I'm clean!"
She was clearly satisfied with Ye Qiu's self-conscious behavior.
"Alright."
Ye Qiu nodded helplessly.
"Speaking of which, Xue'er, you're not going to throw me into the bath again like last night, are you?"
Speaking of last night,
Qian Renxue's face flushed.
She just didn't want Ye Qiu to see his wetness.
"If you want, I can grant your wish."
"Never mind, I still think Xue'er can be gentler."
Ye Qiu chuckled, turning to look at Qian Renxue's profile.
"Are you saying I'm not gentle enough?"
Qian Renxue's flushed face turned somewhat menacing.
Ye Qiu quickly explained, "No, that's not true. Xue'er, I just don't want to see you angry or upset."
"Hmph! If you don't want me to be angry, then don't make me unhappy."
Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu.
She reached out and grabbed Ye Qiu's collar, and Ye Qiu obediently followed her with his hands raised.
They entered Qian Renxue's boudoir.
"The hot water is ready, and the clothes are prepared. Go wash up first, and I'll wait for you here."
Qian Renxue pointed to the clothes hanging on the screen, where the bathtub was still steaming.
"Thank you, Xue'er."
Ye Qiu smiled and was about to step forward when he teased, "How about we go together?"
"..."
Qian Renxue looked at Ye Qiu in surprise.
She slowly gritted her teeth and said, "Sure, I'll castrate you and then we'll go together!"
"Heh, just kidding."
Ye Qiu chuckled dryly and immediately went behind the screen.
"That bastard is dreaming! He gets to use my bathtub and towels, and now he wants me to keep him company? Humph!"
Qian Renxue frowned and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Listening to the sound of water beside her, her golden eyes looked in that direction.
She was indignant: "Has this guy been taking baths with those women all this time?"
Qian Renxue clenched her fist.
She got up and walked blushing to the screen, revealing half of her pretty face.
Amidst the swirling steam,
Ye Qiu's body was still clearly visible.
His skin was comparable to her own, yet he possessed sharply defined muscles.
Slim when clothed, muscular when undressed.
Even with his long, flowing blue hair, it didn't diminish his good looks.
Suddenly,
Ye Qiu stopped washing himself.
Looking at Qian Renxue,
he asked疑惑地问道, "Xue'er, what are you doing standing there?"
Their eyes met.
Qian Renxue's pretty face was flushed crimson. She gritted her teeth and walked out openly.
She said shyly, "Hmph! I just wanted to see you... what's wrong?"
"Uh..."
Ye Qiu's lips twitched slightly.
He said strangely, "You looking at me like that makes me a little uncomfortable."
"Hmph! You're uncomfortable just looking at me? You must have had a lot of fun bathing with those women, right?"
Qian Renxue's face was bright red, and her cold voice carried a hint of coquettishness.
"It's different,"
Ye Qiu explained awkwardly.
Taking a bath together was for romance; standing there letting others watch him bathe made Ye Qiu really uncomfortable.
"How about... Xue'er, you help me scrub my back?"
Ye Qiu took Qian Renxue's purple towel and handed it to her.
"Scrub my back?"

Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow, wanting to refuse, but her feet wouldn't obey.
She went to the bathtub.
"Okay."
Qian Renxue took a towel.
Ye Qiu smiled and turned around, sitting on the highest step in the bathtub.
Qian Renxue bit her red lips, never expecting she would one day be scrubbing someone's back.
But as she actually started scrubbing,
Qian Renxue's movements unconsciously became gentle and meticulous.
Her soft hand gently brushed against Ye Qiu's arm.
His body felt a little warm, and his cold, holy mask almost shattered.
After a long while,
Ye Qiu noticed the soft dampness on his face. With a towel on his head, Qian Renxue had already left.
"Hurry up and finish washing. You're wasting all this time this morning!"
"Heh~"
Ye Qiu chuckled, as if every woman had the potential to become a virtuous wife and loving mother.
With enough love, everything is not a problem.
Ye Qiu no longer cared much about the challenge Qian Renxue had mentioned.
When she approached him with the intention of being friends but instead made romantic advances, she had already miscalculated; she was already trapped in a whirlpool from which she couldn't escape.
Soon,
Ye Qiu put on the clothes Qian Renxue had prepared for him.
Like a graceful young gentleman, he moved with the wind from behind the screen.
White was the main color, with a golden six-winged angel embroidered on the front, surrounded by shimmering snowflakes that reflected light under the lamp.
Clearly,
this was perhaps Qian Renxue's own design; the lower garment had a skirt-like overlay.
It was certain that the six-winged angel embroidery on the chest was embroidered by Qian Renxue herself.
This was Ye Qiu's intuition.
"Xue'er, how are you?"
Ye Qiu opened his arms and approached Qian Renxue, wanting to pin her down on the bed.
"Get away! Why are you asking me how I am? I should be the one asking."
Although Qian Renxue told Ye Qiu to leave, she didn't make any further moves, simply letting Ye Qiu push her down beneath her.
"It fits perfectly, I love it."
Ye Qiu felt the softness and fragrance of the delicate body beneath him, their fingers intertwined, and they kissed.
A smile flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes as she gently responded.
Her face slowly flushed.
Soon after, Qian Renxue pushed Ye Qiu away.
While helping him straighten his clothes, she asked,
"Tell me honestly, where have you been taking those women lately?"
"Just places I frequent: the old village, the Blue Silver Forest, watching the sunrise at the beach in Hanhai City, and the Soul Palace under construction."
Ye Qiu opened his arms, letting Qian Renxue help him.
Qian Renxue frowned.
She definitely wouldn't go to the Soul Palace using her identity.
The other three places were fine.
"Except for the Soul Palace, you have to take me to all the others. Also, I want to see those two 100,000-year-old soul beasts!"
"Okay, whatever you say."
Ye Qiu readily agreed.
He needed to inquire with Da Ming and Er Ming about any strange occurrences at the Lake of Life.
Hearing Ye Qiu's immediate agreement,
Qian Renxue was somewhat surprised.
Then, she lowered her head, a sweet smile appearing on her face.
She had thought Ye Qiu would consider it before agreeing,
worried that the Spirit Hall might take action against them; it seemed she had been overthinking it.
Ye Qiu put his arm around Qian Renxue's waist,
gazing down at her.
"Xue'er, you can go wherever you want, I can even go with you to the Spirit Hall."
"The Spirit Hall?"
Qian Renxue paused, pursing her red lips.
"If you're not afraid, I can take you to see Grandpa."
"..."
